In case you missed it, President Obama really handed it to Willard Romney (that's his real first name) in the third and final presidential debate last night.
Most pundits agreed this morning—Obama was the clear winner of the final debate. The President was well-prepared and even combative as he challenged Romney from the start—a far cry from the Obama we saw in the first debate in which he was accused of appearing weak and distracted.
There were a number of highlights last night, some that could even trump Romney's "binders of women" comment from the last debate. But Obama's "battleships and bayonets" moment was MONEY and will be remembered as one of the best quips of this election cycle.
Here it is. Obama really gets going around the 18-second mark.
ZING!
It's doubly great with the split screen because you can see the "oh-shit—I just got my ass handed to me" expression on Romney's face. There's also an audible cheer from the crowd after the President is finished speaking, which is uncommon, but it highlights the awesomeness of the moment.
Obama:
"Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets because the nature of our military’s changed. We have these things called aircraft carriers where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines."

What I want to know is why you liberals are so in love with Obama who has done nothing for this country but get us another 6 trillion dollars more in dept when he promised he'd cut the deficit in half. He promised to bring down the unemployment rate below 6%, yet 23 million are without jobs. He threw my fellow construction workers and I under the bus to pursue health care, instead trying to fix the economy and get people back to work his whole first year in office. He totally lied to the American people saying the attack in Benghazi was due to a stupid video, when he knew full well it was a terrorist attack. He ran around the world telling everyone how bad America was, and the list goes on and on.
When are you people gonna realize just because someone is likable and a great speaker doesn't mean he's make a good president. No this country is so screwed up with people like you voting.
